Fig. 1. Neurotologic findings of the patient. A: Video-oculography shows aperiodic alternating nystagmus in the light. The left-beating nystagmus is prominent in darkness with an exponentially increasing slow-phase velocity. B: The patient shows left-beating nystagmus during leftward gaze, which reverses to right-beating during rightward gaze. C: Persistent geotropic nystagmus is observed after turning the head to either side while supine. D: The rotatory chair test shows increased gain of the vestibulo-ocular reflex on sinusoidal harmonic acceleration. H: horizontal position of the eye, V: vertical position of the eye.
